Does everyone know that Karl Marx never worked a day in his life? He lived off the support and kindness of other people? Why would someone even follow what that man said? I had hears that Pelosi worships Alinsky, i bet her father would be real proud of that.

 

I found some of candidate Obama' campaign speeches threatening when he keep bringing up global government, of the world. That made me sit back and think about what he real intentions were, then he had those away from the teleprompter slips that really revealed his intents. I steer clear of any candidate or elected representative in public office that states we are a democracy for that very reason J.R..

Thanks for sharing all.

ME, TOO! You gotta' love Senator Rand Paul! And I would have liked to hear her answer to the next question about the Tenth Amendment. This video is about our freedom of choice being stolen by the liberal-progressive nanny state on a fast-tracked rush to socialism, based on the political philosophy of Karl Marx and later promoted by Saul Alinsky, who greatly influenced both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Hillary Clinton wrote her senior thesis at Wellesley College about Saul Alinsky.

And now, we find that Obama, at the behest of his liberal-progressive, world government-pursuing cronies, has stolen our freedom of choice and taken our country into an undeclared war, when our country and national sovereignty were not attacked by the nation our military has been forced by their "Commander-in-Chief" to attack, the nation of Libya. Obama did this by doing an end run around the U.S. Congress and usurping a Constitutional power, held only by Congress, to declare war. In doing so, he also stole the American people' s choice, for our elected members of Congress represent our collective voice.

The American did not elect Obama to be a substitute Congress and Supreme Court... or to be President of the United Nations or the world. From his choice to start a war in Libya and his choice to pick the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaeda to be the winners, we see that he is aiding and abetting their takeover of northern Africa, for we've learned that the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaeda are already operating in Egypt, Algeria, Chad, Mauritania, Niger, and the Sudan and that they have obtained missiles and other heavy weapons. This creates a huge threat to the United States, the rest of the Middle East, the Mediterranean basin, eastern Europe, and the rest of Africa.

Obama is a menace to, not only our freedom of choice, but also to our basic freedoms and liberties... and our constitutional republic. This country is not a democracy. It is a republic. It is a republic based on the Constitution of the United States. And, it's up to all loyal and patriotic Americans to preserve and protect it. As Benjamin Franklin said, we have a republic... if we can hold on to it.

"Obama’s Libya War Flunks Powell Doctrine Test

The Powell Doctrine defines three main precepts;

Avoid mission creep, clearly define our goals and plan an exit strategy before you go in. President Obama’s Libya intervention flunks on all three counts...

Avoid mission creep? It’s too late...

Defined war goals? The only one stated is to protect innocent civilians from Gadhafi’s forces... Our aerial attacks have little to do with protecting anyone and everything to do with killing as many of Gadhafi’s soldiers and disabling as much of his army as possible...

Exit strategy? The confusion over war aims and mission... becomes most apparent when it comes time to contemplate an exit... if the goal is to protect civilians, when will that goal be accomplished? Can it be reached as long as Gadhafi is in power? Not likely. So we really cannot pull out until we have changed the regime.

And then? What if Gadhafi is toppled but his forces are able and willing to wage an Iraqi-style insurgency... Will we be forced to send in ground troops to accomplish our aim? How can we do so from the air?

...the fuzzy nature of our mission and the lack of an exit strategy make the possibility of an out-of-control engagement very real... Won’t the same rationale that dictated the air offensive lead to ground troops? And won’t Obama look insufferably weak if he fails to send them?

More alarming information has come out regarding al-Qaeda's obtaining surface-to-air missiles and other heavy weapons, as well as their operations in a number of North African countries, including Algeria, and the threat they pose to the greater region, in addition to Libya.  Below are exceprts from the article and a link to the original:   

"'Al-Qaeda snatched missiles' in Libya'

"AL-QAEDA'S offshoot in North Africa has snatched surface-to-air missiles from an arsenal in Libya during the civil strife there, Chad's President says... told the African weekly Jeune Afrique that he was "100 per cent sure" of his assertion.

"The Islamists of al-Qaeda took advantage of the pillaging of arsenals in the rebel zone to acquire arms, including surface-to-air missiles, which were then smuggled into their sanctuaries in Tenere," a desert region of the Sahara that stretches from northeast Niger to western Chad...

"This is very serious. AQIM is becoming a genuine army, the best equipped in the region," he said. His claim was echoed by officials in other countries in the region who said that they were worried that al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) might have acquired "heavy weapons", thanks to the insurrection... We have sure information. We are very worried for the sub-region," a Malian security source who did not want to be named said...

Chad's president backed the assertion by his neighbour and erstwhile enemy Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi that the protests in Libya have been driven in part by al-Qaeda... "Up to what point? I don't know. But I am certain that AQIM took an active part in the uprising." The Chadian leader described the international military intervention in Libya, launched a week ago by the United States, France and Britain, as a "hasty decision".  "It could have heavy consequences for the stability of the region and the spread of terrorism in Europe, the Mediterranean and the rest of Africa," he cautioned.

AQIM originated as an armed Islamist resistance movement to the secular Algerian government. It now operates mainly in Algeria, Mauritania, Mali and Niger, where it has attacked military targets and taken civilian hostages, particularly Europeans, some of whom it has killed. "We have the same information," about heavy weapons, including SAM 7 missiles, a military source from Niger said. "It is very worrying. This overarming is a real danger for the whole zone," he added. "AQIM gets the weapons in two ways; people go and look for the arms in Libya to deliver them to AQIM in the Sahel, or AQIM elements go there themselves."

Libya's civil war is between gradually-amassed al-Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood terrorists on one side and the army of 30-years-ago terrorist, Qadaffi, on the other. The people of Libya, who are caught between these two factions, have been forced into silence so as not to tell the outside world the truth about who is killing whom in Libya. Obama has, once again, as he did in Egypt, picked the side of the al-Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood, who are either one-and-the-same or partners in war.

So, why is the United States prosecuting an illegal war there? If the side Obama publicly picked as winners actually wins in Libya, then two large nations of North Africa on the Mediterranean Sea and about 40% of the NE coast of the Red Sea will be controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood, for they are now gaining political control in Egypt, where a 40-year peaceful ruler and ally of the United States was forced out of power by Muslim Brotherhood led rebels---under the guise of a peoples revolution---while Obama stood by and took no action to intervene there militarily. Egyptian citizens and protesters were being killed there, as well. But Qaddifi was strong enough to quash al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood, so Obama decided Qadiffi's strong military had to be annihilated and Qadiffi had to go. Are we beginning to see a pattern here? 

With control of this large area and the military arsenals of two counties, the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaeda will have a huge stronghold and base of operations to spread their terrorism further into the continent of Africa and strenghen their forces already fomenting revolutions in a number of other Middle East countries.  And, if they gain control of the Mediterranean Sea, southern Europe will be at risk... not to mention Israel.

Will it be 'kinetic' news conference?

That was me, on the lawyers. They have shredded our Constitution by saying because it was written two hundred years ago, the words have different meanings. I really never did pay that much attention to the U.S. Constitution, just briefly when in school, until lately and it is such a incredible document, written with so much thought put in by so many people who were familiar with the history and past of failed governments and failed societies.

 

Keep in mind President Bush did have Congress and the whole country backing him, overwhelmingly at the time. Things have gotten so muddled over since then. That is why we should go by the Constitution with clear and concise goals. Things have become too, PC. 

Your last sentence says it all: "It is a very slippery slop..."

 

That is why it is so important to vote for elected representatives who know the U.S. Constitution, our true history and all the documents created to create our government at all levels. They certainly being paid enough to do so.

 

I use to think lawyers were honorable, now i see why my father refused becoming a lawyer, after passing the bar exam, he decided to change his course in a career. They are very prolific in using words and sentences and changing the whole meaning... "kinetic military action" my...

I'm not surprised in the least, for that is what we have seen the biased liberal elite print media do for many years, especially since the first Clinton administration and their protective coverage of him. They have only allowed the public to read their own adopted political story line, even to the extent of running made-up or distorted information designed to create self-fulfilling prophesies. That's why the print media is dying on their own printing presses.  They have been seriously bleeding viewers for the past ten years, to the extent they have had to downsize their staffs and reduce page sizes, column-widths, and numbers of words in articles.  The FL Times Union just reduced its page sizes for a second time, when after the first reduction, you could hardly read it without a magnifying glass. It's poetic justice, really, for being so ignorant as to think we wouldn't understand that they were force-feeding us political garbage.

You can see this is in the reportage of the Libya War for the past week, with all its contradictions that show one hand doesn't know what the other hands are doing, with no idea exactly who is running the illegal show.  It's a good thing we're not having to pay admission to watch this sorry show.  It it were not so serious, it would be comical, since the organization and prosecution of it look like a "kinetic" exercise in trying to herd cats.

Here are some examples in the news that demonstrate some contradictions.  When you read them, keep in mind that we have not been getting the correct story about U.S. assets being used in this war and the costs involved for the U.S. Also, Obama appears to be leading far more than he wants to own up to.  He continues to demand that Gadaffi step down, when we learned yesterday that the rebels are being led by al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood and they are the ones on the front lines.  Also, the U.S. has over 180 aircraft and 12 ships involved, with one bomber already having crash-landed, according to the U.S. Department of Defense website.  Here are a couple of links and I will add a few more in another post:

As for powerful individuals' influence on political behavior, there is nothing new there. For example, the Bible, Socrates, Plato, Thomas Hobbes, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Patrick Henry, John Yates, George Clinton, Samuel Bryan, Richard Henry Lee, etc.... all provide clear insight into how wealth manipulates the political process.

Comment by Wayne Humphrey on March 26, 2011 at 7:02am

In the twentieth-century and beyond (and there are plenty of examples prior to that time), most reporting of news has been bias since the point is to drive readership, sales -- this is truly unbias.
